NOTE If you import from DGN Version 8, there may be more than one model
in the drawing. If so, you will see input layers reflecting each one. Each model
corresponds roughly to a model space in AutoCAD Map 3D (for example, Layout
1 or Layout 2). The input layers are named using the syntax
ModelName_LevelNumber, ModelName_LevelName, or
ModelName_GeometryType, depending on the settings you choose in Driver
Options.
Set driver options before you modify the table. Changing driver options
may reset settings in the table.

Specify the area to import data into.
None
Place no area limit on the incoming file and import the entire incoming
file.
Current Display
Limit the import to the area shown in the current drawing window.
Define Window
Limit the import to a rectangular area you define in the drawing. Click
. Drag your cursor from right to left to define the area. Objects that cross
or are enclosed by the rectangular window are imported.
Notes:
■ AutoCAD Map 3D does not display a preview of the incoming data.
